Hi everyone,
Just putting out a post that i maybe off line for sometime as I'm going to be putting on my Pc a new operating system Linux Mint, I`ve took the big plunge and decided to rip myself off Microsoft 11 operating system and start a fresh because i`m sick of Microsoft Edge spying on everything and Microsoft it`s self too.
So I've made my mind up and I'm doing a complete format and going with Linux Mint, I`m guessing it will take me a while to set this operating system up but I'll get there.
Fun day`s ahead HEY!

I tried Linux Mint a few years ago, it was really easy to install back then, but I'm guessing it's grown in size since. I think if I remember correctly running it off a memory stick and booting into that instead of windows just so I could test it before taking the plunge.
Also I think you can, or at least could dual boot so you could leave windows in place and either boot into windows, or into Linux. I assume that's still possible.
Hopefully all your software will run on it.
It`s installed and let me just say WOW my machine is much much faster and i now have total control over everything and i mean everything all my old software still works and this time my operating systems not looking for goggy key`s for some of the software i installed on it.
Just Brilliant i love Linux Mint the screen just looks like my daughters apple computer same layout.
